The teenage food did its job. I thought
I saw them smile.
We cleaned up, then my daughter
asked if we could shop a while.
My girls tried the latest fashions; my
son, the coolest shoes.
He picked a pair of gold high tops and
a jersey from Purdue.
The two girls hit the sales racks,
flipped through books, and smelled
each candle.
I didn’t know how much more
shopping my teenage son could
handle.

I told them it was time to leave, but
they stopped at one more store. Niagara Power Vista
We went into a toy shop I had not seen
there before. 5777 Lewiston Road (Route 104)

My kids scattered down the aisles to
find their favorite toys.

The girls hit the aisles of pink, while
my son found the one just for boys.
On the way home they reminisced
about how they used to play.
It had been a lot of years since their
toys were packed away.
My teens headed straight to the
basement as soon as we got back.
They pulled out Legos, dolls, and
games until it was all unpacked.
When I headed up to bed that night,
their laughter had yet to subside.
Our trip to the mall had done more
magic then even Disney could provide.
My teens didn’t need a fancy trip to
have a good time together.
The memories from that spring break
would last in their hearts forever.
